Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for the electrical disintegration of cell clusters, comprising an electrode unit having an electrode head and an electrode body; a chamber within which the electrode body is disposed, the chamber having a wall that is partially or fully electrically conductive and electrically isolated from the electrode body, and wherein the chamber has an inlet for receiving fluid containing cell packs, one disposed in the electrode head
- a high voltage source adapted to generate an electric field by applying an electric voltage between the electrode body and the wall, and an electronic control unit cooperating with the high voltage source to change the electric field.
- Such a device is known from DE 20 2011 004 177 U1 of the present applicant.
- Such devices are used in different fields, mainly for the treatment of fluid mixtures containing organic matter, in particular cells and / or cell aggregates, in biogas plants and sewage treatment plants.
- the aim is, by disintegration of the cell associations, for example, in biogas plants the Generation of biogas to favor, because by the so-called cracking of the cell aggregates, the reaction of raw materials to biogas is promoted.
- the term disintegration is generally understood to mean the comminution of cells or cell aggregates under the action of external forces.
- Other known disintegration methods are thermal disintegration, ultrasonic disintegration, chemical disintegration and mechanical disintegration,
- the electrical disintegration is based on the functional principle of exposing cell groups to an electric field which is present between two electrodes. As a result of the action of the electric field on the cells and cell bonds, charge shifts occur on the cell membranes.
- use is then made in this case of the cells and cell assemblies moving within the chamber in which the electric field is applied. Due to the movement of the lines and cell groups, the field strength influencing them changes locally with respect to their respective cell membrane. This ongoing change exposes the cell membrane and / or cell assembly to shear and vibration resulting in destabilization. With sufficiently strong excitation, the cell structure is loosened or dissolved. If more strongly influenced, the cell membranes are collapsed. The latter is known by the term electroporation.
- the invention has for its object to provide a device for electrical disintegration, which is rapidly adaptable to changing environmental conditions, especially quickly adaptable to changed properties of organic matter.
- the invention solves the underlying task in a device of the type described by the electronic control unit has means for Resonanzfrequenzbe- mood of Hochnapssqueile.
- the invention is based on the recognition that the high voltage source forms a resonant circuit with the electrode body and the chamber wall. As the temperature, viscosity, pressure or volumetric flow of the fluid in the chamber changes, the permittivity in the chamber also changes. This in turn influences the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit according to generally known physical principles. Since optimal field generation is also ensured at or at least near the resonance frequency, its determination has proved to be a highly suitable measure for being able to react to changing conditions in the chamber.
- the high voltage source has a high voltage coil and a measuring coil, wherein the measuring coil is connected to the means for resonant frequency determination, and wherein the measuring coil and the high voltage coil are wound around the same core.
- the electronic control unit is adapted to measure the voltage induced in the measuring coil, and preferably the frequency of the voltage, and more preferably to determine a rate of increase of the voltage. Due to the coupling of the measuring coil and the high-voltage coil via the common core, it is ensured that the frequency at the measuring coil is the same as at the high-voltage coil. In addition, when the resonance frequency is reached, the voltage induced at the measuring coil also assumes a maximum. Therefore, it is possible with little technical effort to determine by monitoring the voltage curve at the measuring coil, if or when the resonance frequency is reached.
- the electronic control unit for resonant frequency determination has a control unit with a first processor, and for driving the high voltage source a driver unit with a second processor, wherein the driver unit is adapted to control at least one of the following: frequency, pulse duration , and amplitude of the voltage of the high voltage source. It has proven to be advantageous to carry out the evaluation of the voltage induced at the measuring coil on the one hand and the driving of the high voltage source on the other hand with two dedicated processors, because in each case small, less resource demanding processors can be used.
- the control unit is preferably configured to transmit control commands to the driver unit as a function of the specific measured variables of the measuring coil in order to approximate the frequency of the overall system to the resonance frequency.
- the high-voltage source has a primary coil which is wound around the same core.
- the coil referred to above as a high-voltage coil is in this case a secondary coil.
- the high voltage source preferably has a plurality of serially connected voltage doubler connected to the high voltage coil.
- the electronic control unit is adapted to automatically stepwise vary at least one of the following variables at predetermined time intervals; Frequency, pulse duration, and amplitude of the voltage of the high voltage source, preferably the primary coil. Further preferably, the electronic control unit is adapted to, after a first variation step another To make a variation step in the same direction if the voltage induced on the measuring line after the first variation step is higher than before, and to perform a variation step in the opposite direction if the voltage induced on the measuring path after the first variation step is lower than before.
- This provides an automatically adaptable system to changing chamber conditions. By running the variation steps is constantly checked whether a higher or lower frequency (or other parameters such as. Pulse width) lead to the measuring coil to a higher induced voltage.
- the coil can be pulsed between 1 and 128 Hz. This preferably takes place when the optimum operating state is reached (the optimum resonance frequency).
- the time interval from a variation step to a variation step in the opposite direction is less than the time interval between two variation steps in the same direction. This ensures a faster response to a change in frequency (or other parameters such as the pulse width).
- the invention further relates to a use of the device for the electrical disintegration of cell aggregates. The invention solves the underlying task in such a use with the steps:
- the determination of the resonance frequency comprises:
- Measuring the voltage induced in a measuring coil wherein the measuring coil and a high voltage coil of the high voltage source are wound around the same core.
- changing the electric field comprises controlling at least one of the following: frequency,
- the latter comprises the step of: automatically stepwise varying at least one of the following variables at predetermined time intervals:
- Pulse duration, and - amplitude of the voltage of the high voltage source preferably the primary coil.
- the use according to the invention is continued by at least one of the steps: Making a further variation step in the same direction if the voltage induced at the measuring coil is higher after a first variation step than before, and
